Another fine masterpiece Ari. The 374D looks great outside in the natural sunlight.

How about you tackle a Caterpillar 527 skidder next? That would be something totally different from what you've been building.

A haul trk would be a positive asset to compliment your track hoe, but...

..just like your 14M grader, nobody else has done one of these yet! And with your skills to build, no one will do a better job than what you're capable of. This project should keep you busy for a year again.

My vote would be for a Cat 657B. With the twin motor setup you'd be able to power both axles and really move some dirt!

Great job , Ari . A 657 would be my next suggestion . as Joe stated ,not many motor scrapers attempted . thus the reason for me building the IH 433 pay scraper.

Wow, that's cool, but it sounds like it has some gear mesh problems at times.

That was quite an animal it had a lot of detail. He did not build that over night. There is quite a bit going on with it a very nice build. They keep getting better and better. Ed

Hi Ari

Please make what ever you like as long as you share it with all of us on here.
It has been a real pleasure to watch the model evolve to completion.
Really top class work.

look forward to hearing what you have chosen and in time the first posts of construction.

Thanks Mark

The tires are from Premacon, but the wheels are self made.
